To determine the safety ratings and specification of the entire system refer to each component in the system. Before starting to work with the SEA 9510 module please read this docu- ment and the software manual carefully. If there are any questions about operating the module or if any term is not understood, please contact the vendor before using the module.
The reader should consult the vendor if errors are suspected. End User License Agreement (EULA) Before operating the SEA 9510 and the provided software you have to agree to the terms and conditions (EULA). This agreement is part of the software installation procedure.
Safety Guidelines To protect persons against any harm and the module from damage, the operation of the SEA 9510 module is only allowed according to the rules described in this document. Operator Protection Hot or Cold Surface The metallic surface of the module might be- come hot or cold as well.
Safety Critical Applications The module is not failure tolerant and therefore not suitable for use in safety critical applications. Do not use the module for medical applications or any live sup- porting apparatus. Hazardous Locations The module is suitable for use in non hazardous locations only. Keep the module always away from hazardous locations and ex- plosive areas.

Connecting the SEA 9510 SEA 9510 provides three independent channels for Heidenhain EnDat en- coders, as well as a connector for external power supply. Channel Terminals The encoder channel terminals have a M12 female con- nector and accept only encoders with M12 male connec- tor.
power supply to the module is required. The pin allocation of the M12 socket is shown in Fig. 2. Pin 8 (VCC) is the sensor supply voltage (5 V) output. This is a reg- ulated DC voltage to provide power to the sensor. This output only supplies a voltage if the ex- ternal power connector is con- nected to an adequate power...
The SEA 9510 encoder connectors are connected via the SEA 9510 casing and the cRIO connector with the NI cRIO casing and earth. In many NI cRIO system, however, ground and earth are internally connected which leads to an unwanted connection between outer and inner shield. To avoid this, it is necessary to supply the module from an external power supply which needs to be electrically insulated from the NI cRIO power supply.
7 V DC to 30 V DC is accepted. The SEA 9510 module and any cabling is not protected against lightning strike or any over-voltage above 30 V. Status LEDs The green front panel LED lights up if the module is connected to an exter- nal supply voltage and the module’s firmware has been loaded success-...
Sleep Mode This module supports a low-power sleep mode. In sleep mode typically there is no communication with the module and the power consumption is minimized. The system thermal dissipation may decrease. Refer to the Specifications section for more information about power consumption and thermal dissipation.
